People turning 60 years old these days always have an inexpressible feeling for books – feeling affectionate? Feeling Addicted? Feeling peaceful? Feeling like their companions? All in all, a good book can make you feel that the whole world is in your hands.

Except having presbyopia, the feeling that those approaching 60 and beyond experience is in fact the same as the feeling that they have when they’re young. The feelings of joy, sadness, horror or suspense conjured up by the book also affect our minds. Today, however, we can grasp all kinds of information through different media. If you like reading, you do not even have to have a book in your hand. Popular tools like e-book readers and audio books help those whose eyesight no longer enables them to enjoy reading.

In the past, most of those who liked reading bought their favorite books from bookstores or borrowed them from public libraries. Nowadays, everyone is concerned about efficiency and focuses on quality, and reading is no longer just for leisure, but also can be a taste for life. Therefore, many places such as bookstores, book shops and reading cafes will provide diversified reading services in addition to book selling for book lovers to read a book while enjoying a drink and a dessert, as well as relaxing during a wonderful morning or afternoon!

On this page, we will provide information about book recommendations, including best-selling books in the world, best-selling books, reading sharing clubs, etc.

Book crossing activities originated in the 1960s in Europe. They refer to book owners affixing a specific label on books that they don’t read anymore and leaving them in a public place, such as a bench in a park, to be picked up and read by others. After reading them, the reader who picks up the books will then leave them in a public place in the same way according to the instructions on the label. As for the book crossing activities in Hong Kong, interested participants are welcome to pick up the book from the “book crossing point” of the Hong Kong Playground Association. After reading it, readers can return the book to any “book crossing point” for further crossing. And each participant can only pick up one “crossed book” at a time.

Some bookstores provide a wide range of reading services; you can visit their websites for details:

The biggest challenge faced by people who love reading is how to deal with the books they buy. Although there are many ways to recycle books, some books need to be retained. Fortunately, as electronic books have been widely used in recent years, we can use e-book readers, such as Kindle, Kobo, Oaxis, Onyx, etc. to store a certain number of e-books at the same time, so that readers are free to read their favorite books at any time. Moreover, e-readers feature a font size adjustment function, which is very suitable for those approaching 60 and beyond who want to read. For details and comparisons of the quality and functions of different products, please refer to Consumer Council – Test Report on e-book Readers (June 2015) and Consumer Tips for Buying e-book Readers.
